Cheung Hing Kee Shanghai Pan-fried Buns - Michelin Guide restaurant

Kowloon - I decided to walk around Mong Kong and was surprise by the buzz around the town and it was crowded.   I happened to walk into a night market selling fruits, seafood and meats.   They even sell durians but the HK type is the Thai monthong durian - I took a sniff and there is no smell unlike the super delicious Malaysian type.

The night market floor is wet and smelly with butcher and fishmonger busy with the sales.

After walking through the night market, I walked along Fa Yuen Street is known as Sneakers Street, thanks to its abundance of shoe shops and famous brands with bright advertisements.

Then the best experience was to have my dinner at this Michelin star take-away restaurant also along Fa Yuen Street.  Fortunately, it was not crowded and I took my time to order the famous black truffle bun.

You have to be very careful eating the bun as it was one steaming hot bun which was full of broth, and putting it straight up into your mouth could just scald your tongue.

The beef is very tender and tasty but it was nothing to shout about.  I should have order more of their other famous steaming hot buns.
